Faustel Showcasing Modular Battery Separator Coating Lines

Germantown, Wisconsin — Faustel announces that it will showcase electrode coating solutions at The Battery Show in Novi, Michigan, September 16-18, 2014. The Battery Show is co-located with Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology Conference. Faustel is located in booth B1548.

An important step in the production of lithium-ion batteries is the coating of electrode slurries onto conductive foils. Faustel is featuring two modular lithium-ion and separator coating systems: The Labmaster and MCL-600. The Labmaster is ideally suited for process development and narrow webs up to 300mm. The MCL-600 is a production-level coating line for web widths up to 600mm. The pre-engineered systems have customizable features to accommodate virtually any battery or separator coating process and are available in single or double pass configurations. Both systems utilize pre-engineered components that can be delivered quickly, produced at a lower cost than a fully customized system, and offer efficient utilization of space.

The Battery Show and Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology conferences are specifically designed to examine the key business and technical issues impacting the industry; helping delegates understand and manage the impact of regulatory requirements, comply with safety standards, discover the potential of emerging technologies and chemistries, and improve understanding of growth markets and applications. With three parallel tracks, the two collocated conferences offer a unique opportunity for both business-minded and technical professionals to discuss the key issues and make new contacts, and also view and experience technologies in the exhibition.
